WEDDING AT THE NIXON LIBRARY

This past Saturday I joined Jeremy to shoot Hans & Blanca’s wedding. As I mentioned in the previous sneak peek, it was a beautiful wedding, but challenging. The ceremony was held at the Pilgrim Congregational Church, which was dark inside and we couldn’t use any flash. I knew as soon as I drove to the church and it started to rain, what kind of day it would be. But rain happens and I think it’s just as beautiful to have a wedding on a rainy day. We then headed over to the Richard Nixon Library where it was absolutely beautiful inside. The details and colors of the wedding really gave it a romantic feel. Now on to my favorites from the day.

After I shot these kids, they asked in their little voices, “Can I see the photo?” I guess they get their picture taken all the time.

I really just wanted to do Black & Whites for the photos this time. It fit well with the mood of the day.

Blanca’s sister had an amazing voice and sang their first dance song. It was so great.

    I wouldn’t have known about the rainy day and no flash allowed dilemma had you not mentioned it. Great shots!
